OT: Coach Prime lands record-breaking contract extension with CU Buffs
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Lots of people said he would leave for NFL - and he lost recruits because of it.
But he likes Colorado and Colorado likes him.
All the talk about being "disruptive" was funny since he has been nothing but a prince of peace at Colorado
With addition of Marshall Falk Colorado now has 3 HOF coaches (Prime and Sapp being the other two).
I don't know how the NIL is going

On the surface Colorado is similar to Rutgers. The politicians don't care much for the state schools (CU & CSU). They rather give public money to pro teams. The difference is Colorado has alumni and friends of the program who are willing to write BIG checks. Also, the local media supports the school unlike nj.com with Rutgers. People of Colorado have a favorable view of Colorado and support the school as long as no BS is going on. Rutgers, on the other hand, has to prove itself before the locals are willing to support it, then that support comes with strings attached.
ALL the politicians like money and Sanders brings it to Colorado and Boulder.
Six home games brought in $113.2 million to Boulder,
"The Colorado athletic department reported record revenue and football ticket sales in fiscal year 2024, leading to an $8.2 million “profit” after posting deficits in five of the previous six years, according to a financial report filed by Colorado recently with the NCAA.
Colorado released the report this week for fiscal year 2024, which covers July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, including the first football season under coach Deion Sanders and also the last full fiscal year for Colorado in the Pac-12 Conference. The Coach Prime Effect of Sanders’ hiring helped lead the department to a record $146.6 million in reported revenue and a record $31.2 million in football ticket sales, which is roughly double the previous school recors"

CU Boulder Football Economic Impact

Colorado still has legacy costs to resolve but they should get help now that coach is staying.
The NIL "collective" is gone and all NIL goes through Athletic department now.
Prime likes NIL but never liked collectives anyway
Prime is a unicorn. Prior to his arrival, Colorado was a carbon copy of Rutgers.ALL the politicians like money and Sanders brings it to Colorado and Boulder.

CU still had stain and somewhat of a national reputation
National title, the hail mary at Michigan, Cordell Stewart, Rasham Salan, Eric B enemy, 5th down @ Mizzou, 30/30 on the coach, etc.

Yes , for a while Colorado was a national program and had big time coaches. . The situation is nothing like Rutgers.
Prime is doing a great job , even if this board thinks otherwise
Uh oh. How dare you compare any other program to Rutgers!
Rutgers is and has always been a unique situation and can't be compared to anyone else in the world!
Funny how the experts are educating you about Colorado.
It's actually really funny.
If anyone tried to say Syracuse and Donovan McNabb had "stain" still they would he laughed at and mocked.
"That was 30 years ago. Nobody cares. Current players weren't even born."
But Colorado and Eric Bienbiemy are still relevant 35 years later.
Flags fly forever
Nobody gives a shit about Syracuse because Syracuse never won anything of significance
Deion went knowing there was potential there, and knowing that if he came, the money would flow in
It’s cause and affect from the previous success they had, not because he likes sking or had a special affinity for Ralphie
You could’ve just stopped at National Title and maybe the two Heisman winners to make your point.
Touche
But there are those on this board where those accomplishments wouldn’t suffice enough, hence the additional ones
Deion pushes hard but he's believable - dude never takes a day off

Ummmm, Syracuse won a national championship in 1959. And they have had a trio of running backs you may have heard of, Jim Brown, Ernie Davis and Larry Csonka . . .
Awesome
65 years ago they won
Army was a powerhouse back then as well
Now… not so much
Fran will either tank there (not likely) or leave for greener pastures
Thats not, nor will ever be, a destination job
Colorado isn’t Notre Dame, but they’re light years ahead of the fruit
